Pedantic rant - Ronald_McDonald - 07-08-2008

I've seen some new B&A forums popping up all over the place and noticed that the clan information paragraph is being copied and pasted each time. I think it would be beneficial to expand and update it a little bit:

"We are the B&A Clowns, and we come from the LVP server. We started off as a gang late 2006, fighting off several gangs. We were notorious for our heavy clownage, and rivalry with an enemy gang - the ColdThugZ. For months we remained a LVP-only gang, but recently there's been some lack of activity. We converted into a clan today, and took the [BA] tag. We're open to anyone who'd like to join. See the application here."

1) I would advise that the "lack of activity part" be changed as this is a negative comment to make and undoubtedly does nothing to encourage interest.

2) "Today" refers to the present; B&A formed into a clan some time ago now.

3) "See application here" - Isn't B&A invite only?

You can find this paragraph at the following locations:

I would suggest coming up with something a little more coherent and informative then getting all of the start posters at the respective forums to update the post. Anyway, that's just my opinion. Take it or leave it  :+

And no, I'm not rewriting it.

We are the B&A Clowns, and we come from the LVP server. We started off as a gang late 2006, fighting off several gangs. We were notorious for our heavy clownage, and rivalry with an enemy gang - the ColdThugZ. For months we remained a LVP-only gang but last year we converted into a clan and took the [BA] tag. As of now, we are invite only so if you're interested just hang around with us on IRC or LVP and you may get invite.

Good enough? sry double post.
